About this work

This painting shows a man in a military uniform, standing with his right arm raised and his left arm resting on a sword. He wears a tall hat with a feather and a red sash around his waist. In the background, other soldiers are visible, along with a rocky hillside and a cloudy sky. The man's uniform is detailed, with intricate designs and patterns. The background is more subdued, with muted colors that contrast with the vibrant colors of the man's uniform. The painting is a color etching, wash manner, aquatint on wove paper, and is part of the Romanticism movement.
